FTFA: State officials decided to visit the school after the school reported a 99.5 percent attendance rate."That means better than 99 percent of its students were in school 90 percent of the time," said Sarah Potter, spokeswoman for the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.I hope this educator doesn't teach math. It doesn't mean that at all. It means on average (of 636 kids) only 3 kids were missing any given day, which is much more significant than her 99%, 90% of the time.

State officials also said they learned that a school employee had taken $700 from a student in exchange for granting that student academic credit toward graduation. The money was later returned to the student.

0. You don't get to siphon away public money like that without connections - the kind that protect you from jail.

/There are legitimate problems with our schools//Charter schools, however, are often an end-run against good laws which exist for a reason in the name of "innovation" and the movement has a lot of crooked businessman like this funding the push for them.

Very damn true from everything I have heard all the do is siphon money out of public education.

dahmers love zombie:The Kansas City charter school's board of directors put Superintendent Vonnelle Middleton and five other employees on leave after the state review team's visit in early October.

Cutler said Laquanda Carpenter, principal of the school's Bennington campus, is serving as interim superintendent.

Last year UMKC declined to renew the charter at Derrick Thomas Academy, another low-performing charter, because of issues of mismanagement. That school closed.

I simply have no idea what to make of any of this. None.

Phyllis Chase, director of the UMKC Charter School Center, said that when she heard the state's findings, "I was shocked and saddened."

"This was news to the board," said Dana Cutler, attorney for Hope Academy.

Put two and two together, and you presumably have white and black people "working" together to make sure they get paid while students aren't getting shiat.

At least, that's how I read it. I could be wrong, there might be an Asian or a Jew in there somewhere. Definitely no Indians, possibly no Irish unless there's a shop program at the school to make whiskey barrels. And I think we can rule out any Intuits.

Do you know who the Derrick Thomas Academy was named after? Or why? Or is it just the color of his skin that irks you?

My cousin's name is Derrick, he is as white as they come and is in his 50s, pretty respectable guy with a good career behind him.

Tell me, can you tell the color of skin of the following people? (Key at the bottom, don't cheat now, just take some guesses and see how you do.)Jeffrey, Mark, Lorraine, Dorinda, Kali, Margie, Liriel, Susan, Doreen, Michael, Krystal, Janice, Jazmine, Asha, Amy.

I am willing to bet that you guess wrong on the ones you think you know best. Of course, that gives a couple away, but not all.

In case you wonder, at least one of the names that you didn't highlight belongs to a non-white woman.

1 bad public school: Stuff happens, whatayagonnado, don't judge them all by one bad apple.1 bad charter school: dismantle the entire program, burn the buildings, kill the livestock, and salt the earth so charters can never rise again.
